How'd I manage to miss this one? Brilliant overview of the real and perceived "pain points" for minnows.
From my view, complaints about the interface are the most preposterous. It's like going from the horse & buggy to a Model T Ford, and complaining about all the dashboard flaws about one of the first cars, while ignoring the exciting, mind-boggling future potential. There's a place for those who prefer slick interfaces to a more fair and potentially lucrative platform, it's called "Facebook"...
To the complainers - When your dedicated minnow companions who have tolerated a slightly less aesthetic interface have grown into dolphins and whales, and SMTs have blown the price of Steem sky-high, the worst place you could be is on facebook enjoying all the 'alluring' emoticons and other fluff.
